Can anyone tell me how many inches it sticks up from the crossbars? I have a low garage clearance and the Thule double rack doesn't fit. Thank you.

4 3/8" for the locking part. The straps extend higher but they will flatten down.

I have no idea. I have a 12 kia Sorrento OEM crossbars and it fitted perfectly. My bars are flat . So I can't really answer whether it will fit on your Thule or not.

Hi George, this product is designed for vehicles with a naked roof only. To find a crossbar solution for your vehicle, please visit the Thule buyers guide to see all the options we have available. Thanks!

I get about 45" when I measure. I measured from the floor to the top of the first post. Then I measured the four inches left above the adjustable bar. It is possible that when lowered it will slide an inch (or so) below the 45". I can't lower my rack right now to measure it specifically (while it's lowered) for you.

i cannot answer the Freestar Van question, but I can say the only Thule accessory that I have that fits on this rack is my roof box. All my Thule accessories were bought for standard bars, not the wider whisper bars. On the Thule site they picture the Thule 810 SUP Taxi Rack with standard bars...if that is the case for all such racks, then no it will not fit.

If the rack accepts a standard size receiver pin then this would work, but it depends on the Thule rack, and if it is a newer rack then it is unlikely that it will work. Most Thule racks either have the "Snug-Tite" system or they use a bolt for securing them in place. You will need to determine exactly which Thule rack you have in order to determine if this will work for you.

Yes. The Thule bars are actually slightly rectangular rather than fully square in cross-section. The clamps on the Powderhound Ski racks are shaped to fit equally well to either the round cross-section Yakima cross bars that I have on my SUV and the rectangular cross-section Thule bars that I have on my Honda minivan.

It is adjustable for widths. I suggest you measure how wide your current roof rack is and see if it is less than the width of these cross bars. If the cross bars are wider than your roof rack, it will fit as it is adjustable.

That Vortex 2500 roof rack's crossbar dimensions are 59" long x 3-1/8" wide x 1-3/16" tall. So the simple answer is NO, but the detailed answer is yes but. . . The stock hardware that is supplied with the roof rack will only accommodate crossbars that are less then 1-7/8" wide. Because the width of the Vortex 2500 is 3-1/8" wide, the stock hardware is not going to work. However, if it was me, and I already owned the racks, I would use two 1/4" stainless bolt. washer and nut sets per rack, and then drill appropriately sized holes in the crossbars to accept the bolts. The hardware at the back end of each rack is adjustable for width and the 1-3/16" thickness will not be a problem as long as you replace the reinforcing bar that spans the two rear bolts with a longer section of steel stock. THE OTHER TWO ANSWERS SHOWN ARE NOT CORRECT BECAUSE OF THE WIDTH OF YOUR CROSSBARS

no it will not as if comes out of the box. The bracket that attaches to the roof rack is desigened to fit Thule racks which are rectangular and smaller than two inches. It would require some metal fabrication/ modification.

I spoke with TracRac, they stated that they do not have anything and the Thule rack padding is to small for their rack. I would recommend getting pipe insulation, I have had customers use that in the past and it works well.

It should fit, but double ckeck the size of your crossbars. If it's more than two inches wide then you might have a problem. Good luck!

I am pretty sure Yakima or Thule make plastic mount kits to adapt their products to SUV cross bars. My Yakima is still working great. If there is any downside I can think of, I would say that the rack is a little heavy, but since it is so robust, I can't complain about that.

I am towing a popup camper, and am having no issues with clearance. Worst case, I would think, is that you may need an extended draw bar. I would try it first to see if it works without it, and then buy one if needed. We love this bike rack, by the way. I hope that helps.

The racks I bought are the Thule Xsporter Pro . I did not see another model number.

Good day, this carrier is designed to fit all Thule and most aftermarket roof rack systems and crossbars. If the crossbar dimensions do not vary too much from any of the Thule bars, then this should fit without any issue. Thank you and have a great day!
